Marc Pugh has taken to Twitter for the first time after completing his switch from Bournemouth to Hull City.

The winger became the Tigers’ first piece of business in the winter window, joining on loan for the remainder of the season on Tuesday.

Pugh linked up with his new teammates yesterday after spending nine years at the Vitality Stadium and he will have the chance to pull on the black and amber shirt this weekend when the Tigers travel to Blackburn Rovers on Saturday.

However, after putting pen to paper on a deal at the KCOM Stadium, Pugh took to Twitter to express his excitement to get going at the KCOM Stadium.

“Absolutely delighted to have signed for @HullCity,” Pugh wrote. Thank you to the lads, all the staff and fans who have made me feel so welcome. Really enjoyed my first training session and can’t wait to get started!”

The 31-year-old spent eight and a half seasons at the Vitality Stadium, making over 300 appearances and helping the Cherries climb from League One to the Premier League.

However, with his contract set to expire at the end of the season, Pugh has been allowed to leave the club in order to find game time and shortly after the deal was announced, Pugh posted a parting message to the Bournemouth fans.
